Hello all

Just wanted to give a little bit of encouragement to everyone who bought a fish only to have them disappear seemingly without a trace. About 6 months ago I bought a Yellow Watchman Goby from my LFS. After a couple of days in the acclimation box, I released him into the DT and he promptly swam into a cave. I thought he would come out to eat but no such luck. I wrote the little guy off thinking the CUC got him. Today at feeding time, guess who decided to pop out? Both he and his pistol shrimp buddy came out to get their share of Reef Frenzy. So all of you who have a disappearing artist in the tank, don’t write them off. They’ll come out when you least expect it. Unless you have an ammonia spike, chances are they’re alive and kicking. Never give up, never surrender!!
